Justice Department Revises 6 Terms in 2257 Lawsuit

And exactly how is the DOJ going to know what material was produced prior to June 23rd 2005? I suppose they'll just take our word.

This post was created prior to June 23rd, 2005 ignore the invalid timestamp above.

Exactly what I was thinking. The positive side of this is the doj is back peddling.

Um...record-keeping requirements have been in effect all along. A primary producer (at least) needs to have valid, signed model releases with the date of production listed for every photo set or video they make or distribute, whether shot before June 23, 2005 or after, and those documents have been and are subject to inspection. I'd guess that secondary producers using "actually explicit" pre-June 2005 content had better have at least a clickable link to the 2257 info on the relevant primary producers' sites - at least until the secondary producer issues get settled.

Sorry, yes to clarify I was thinking of secondary producer's, specifically freesites linking to 2257 pages off site.
